Love  Tunnel
~~~


Climb  aboard
buckle  up
you  may  not  like  the  ride
Irregardless
lost  or  found
you  keep  your  heart  inside
~
An  empty  car
room  for  two
with  you  behind  the  wheel
At  breakneck  speed
reverse ... uh  uh
no  brakes
you'll  have  to  squeal
~
The  tunnel  entrance
coming  fast
the  track  throws  in  some  curves
Loop  de  loop
jump  a  gorge
flashing  faces
make  you  swerve
~
Scraping  pillars
passing  through
its'  gate
your  triumphant  cry
This  tunnel  of  love
a  magic  world
all  pleasures  intensified
~
You  look  around
this  awesome  realm
your  eyes  float  free
with  tears
The  waves  crash  forth
upon  your  cheeks
as  reality  pokes  and  jeers
~
Your  all  alone
you  forgot  to  zig
when  zagging  flashing  faces
You  forgot  to  choose
you  snooze
you  lose
Now  ejected
with  the  lonely  cases
~
Cry  a  while
in  line  again
this  time
steer  much  smarter
Buckle  up
and  set  your  jaw
this  time
... Try ...
to  grab
a  partner
~~~


 I'm not ugly!
I'm just visually challenged!

Set your jaw...good line there.
I've fallen and I can't get up  

Na, you've done a great job here. Sounds like an intense ride with all the zigging and the zagging  

 <*\\\><

When you can't make up your mind,
Which way is right for you,
Stop and softly ask yourself,
"What Would Jesus Do?"
